good and reliable sources that men do it just to be nice. When it is brought up that not all men who do this are "nice" and will do shit like this, the reply will be that it was because of something else. The guy was deranged, he was drunk, on drugs. It will never, ever be allowed to say that there are some men out there who believe it is their God-given right to treat women like this. When a man politely asked that guy to stop there was payback for interfering with his right. How dare someone tell him he can not be a nice guy and sexually harass just say hi to a strange woman out in public.

In the greater scheme of things, women have always known that an event such as this is a reality. Men like this do not come with a big A (is for a-hole)on their forehead as a warning, therefore any street harassment is not welcome. I wish the Christ the women who pipe up to say they love getting harassed would just for one second think about the harm she is helping to perpetuate against her sisters.
